Macrothyatira conspicua ( Leech, 1900) View in CoL

Thyatira conspicua Leech, 1900: 12 View in CoL . Type-locality: China, Sichuan, Pu-tsu-fong. Lectotype ♂ (BMNH).

Distribution. China (Shaanxi, Zhejiang, Hunan, Fujian, Taiwan, Sichuan, Yunnan).

Remarks. Zhao (2004) incorrectly included Tibet and Nepal in the distribution areas of this species. The material from Tibet which she included under this species belongs to Habrosyne intermedia conscripta Warren, 1912 . These were more probably misplaced entries rather than misidentifications. The species is here recorded from Zhejiang for the first time.
